fabulous food!!

It was nice to cookout this weekend. I can't wait for the weather to get warm and stay warm. I also made for the first time a cheesy tator tot casserole. My friend Annaleise makes this and it is fabulous and I got it in my head I wanted it really bad, So I found what I thought would be a similar recipe online and it tasted great! (usually when I try these things and step out of my cooking comfort zone it doesn't work out so well).

Potting Project...

I have successful kept two indoor plants alive since Novemeber so it was time re-pot them, so Ifinally got around to that this weekend. According to HGTV live plants are a great way to warm up a space. Lets hope I can keep them going...

Old School

I was cleaning out my graduate school back pack this weekend that I found in the back of my closet and I found these. It made me laugh at how vital these were to me not that long ago and now they are so out dated. I guess they are the 8 tracks of my computer generation :0)

Poor Rory....

Do you have those moments where you think you've use solid logic only to have it back fire on you! Well I did such thing with Rory in the past month. We began to notice this week that Rory seems to have well put on weight, only a trained eye can tell but we now have the scale to prove in just a month she has gone from 22lbs to 27.5 lbs. Doesn't sound like a lot but on a little frame like Rory's it is. Well only last night did it dawn on us the cause. Here is the colpret, my logic!While Ryan was out of town I had the resposiblity when Rory ran out of food mid week to go pick it up. I didn't know which kind we usually get as we throw the bag away quickly after filling Rory's food bin. So I know the brand but they is a whole aisle of options at Pets mart. I find one with a dog that looks the most like Rory and says "active", well that certainly describes Rory (solid logic right!) but aparently one small thing I forgot to calculate "Active" dogs usually burn more calories than your average dog so apparently they pack lots and lots of calories in food for active dogs. So unknowningly was feeding Rory an extremely high calorie diet and poor Rory has got a few rolls from it. Here is the pick of the new bag, it is the proper food for her, I will memorize it so my logic will not defy me again.

Our brain is amazing!

Some of you may have seen this before. How God made us and how our brain works (and how emotions are inter-connected with our brain) is so facinating to me on many levels. I was reminded of this recently from an email I got:

Don't worry you can read this, give it a go:

I cdnuolt blveiee that I cluod aulaclty uesdnatnrd what I was rdanieg. The phaonmneal pweor of the hmuan mnid Aoccdrnig to rscheearch at Cmabrigde Uinervtisy, it deosn't mttaer in what oredr the ltteers in a word are, the olny iprmoatnt tihng is that the first and last ltteer be in the rghit pclae. The rset can be a taotl mses and you can still raed it wouthit a porbelm. This is bcuseae the huamn mnid deos not raed ervey lteter by istlef, but the word as a wlohe. Amzanig huh?

This also made me feel better because I am horrible speller :0)
